Crude Prospects
Crude Prospects
Synopsis:
Alaska, 66 degrees north, or just shy of it. Childhood buddies Brett and Kathy confront a fissured friendship at the fossil-fuel frontier of the Arctic. As executive Kathy moils for oil at the top of the planet, Brett undertakes a journey to the ice and sifts through the sediments of collective pasts and impossible futures. Up here the day doesn't start over every day. From crass commie yarns to company spin, god-giving missions to perished prospectors, whale oil to petroleum, Brett heads northwards, where myths, money, and politics crackle and spit in a fuel doused arctic dream. By turns antic and troubling, these two-frontiers women are chased from the hewn down ranges of their homeland - the American Ozarks - to the unyielding Arctic elements by a soiled past they can't quite erase. Les Foules drills to the bottom of our outlandish orders of exploration and laws of extraction in a kicked-up Western gone North. An intimate portrayal of friendship and camaraderie opens out onto a narrative expanse of arctically proportioned disorientation and division.
